A review by m3greads
The Summer I Turned Pretty by Jenny Han
lighthearted
2.5
my knowledge with this story extends to watching the tv series adaptation (which are the two seasons that are currently out) it’s not the best thing ever but I still had an ok time
now as for the book…this reads as very YOUNG adult. The writing was pretty juvenile, middle school me would have probably ate this up. Not that it’s a bad thing it’s just too young for me personally. I would give this to a 12 -13 year old as a gateway into reading (or maybe not cause there are better options)
there was a lot I wasn’t vibing with. The half star is for how quickly I was able to power through this book like ms Han was wasting no time. I think the Tv show adaptation did a better job in pretty much every aspect. I’m not trying to shit on this book, if you enjoy it good for you. I just had a lot of thoughts and felt like writing a longer review, and I’m still gonna read the rest of the series so yeah
